Yngwie Malmsteen Angels Of Love Full Album
Okay, let's talk about Yngwie Malmsteen. Yes, THAT Yngwie Malmsteen. The shred god himself, the man who makes guitars weep (tears of joy, obviously!).
And let's dive headfirst into his album, Angels of Love. Because sometimes, even the most fearsome Viking needs a little bit of… well, love.
So, what’s the deal with this album?
Imagine Yngwie, but instead of setting his guitar on fire (metaphorically, mostly!), he's serenading you with a gentle breeze. Think less "axe murderer," more "romantic guitarist on a moonlit balcony."
Angels of Love is an all-instrumental album. It filled with beautiful, sweeping melodies. No screaming, no growling, just pure, unadulterated guitar bliss.
Don't let the "love" fool you
Sure, it's not going to melt your face off with blistering speed. But this album shows another side of Yngwie. A side that's surprisingly… tender.
Think of it as Yngwie's version of a lullaby. A lullaby played on a ridiculously expensive Stratocaster, of course!
It's a departure from his usual neo-classical shred-fest, definitely. But hey, even the most dedicated speed demons need a change of pace, right?
What Makes it so good?
The melodies are gorgeous, plain and simple. They soar and dip like graceful eagles. It's like listening to a soundtrack for a movie you haven't seen yet, but you already know it's going to be epic.
Yngwie’s playing is still impeccable, don't worry. He's not just strumming chords. He's crafting intricate solos with such precision and feeling.
The production is also top-notch. Everything sounds crystal clear and balanced. This allows you to really appreciate the nuances of Yngwie's playing.
Okay, I’m intrigued. Where do I start?
Just hit play! Let the music wash over you. No need to analyze it, just feel it.
Picture yourself watching the sunset over the ocean. Or maybe floating on a cloud made of marshmallows. Whatever makes you feel relaxed and happy, that’s the vibe of this album.
Track to watch out for? Honestly, the whole album is pretty solid. But "Forever Is Today" and "Miracle of Love" are good starting points.
Final Thoughts
Angels of Love is a surprising, beautiful, and ultimately rewarding album. It proves that even the king of shred can have a soft side.
So, if you’re looking for something a little different from Yngwie, give this album a try. You might just be surprised at how much you love it.
Who knows, you might even find yourself shredding along (air guitar, of course!) while humming those sweet, sweet melodies.
Seriously, give it a listen. You deserve a little bit of Yngwie's love in your life.
“Too much is never enough!” - Yngwie Malmsteen
